Chapter 456: Persuasion (2-in-1)

The hall of the palace was full of people, and all the numbers in Luoyang City came here. They are waiting for the arrival of the main character, Liu Yu.

Although the crowd is uneven, it can be clearly distinguished. The generals all sat together, they were relatively united, and they exchanged words with each other, laughing constantly.

Among the civil officials, Liu Yu's henchmen naturally sat together, and Yang Biao and other previous courtiers were quite neglected, and they sat on the side in a very low-key manner.

Ma Teng and Zhang Lu came over, and naturally sat on the side of Liu Yu's henchmen.

Liu Yushan was late, and everyone immediately sat upright.

Yang Biao and the others looked at Liu Yu excitedly, and the most important thing must be implemented today.

Yang Biao stood up and said with a smile: "Today, the prince returned victoriously, and Hebei is stable and back on the right path. Under the wise leadership of the prince, the Han Dynasty will soon regain stability. The prince has made a lot of contributions. ”

"Yes, the lord (prince) has made a lot of contributions." Others also echoed Yang Biao's words.

Liu Yu smiled, this Yang Biao seemed to be persuasive. So he said: "This king is the descendant of Gaozu, and it is the duty of this king to revitalize the society and stabilize the country." ”

"The lord is wrong in his words. If it weren't for the lord to set things right, I don't know how many people in this big Han world would be lonely. The work of the lord is unmatched in the world. Chen Gong also patted Liu Yu's ass.

"The prince is powerful in the world, and the Han Dynasty needs the prince to ascend and rule the world. On behalf of the people of the world, we implore our Lord to ascend the throne and become emperor! Yang Biao took the opportunity to say the most important thing today.

The people of the world are represented, and Yang Biao, the old man, is really shameless.

Liu Yu pretended to be angry and said, "You want to trap this king in injustice!" ”

Fu Zhu understood that it was impossible for Liu Yu to agree at once, so he said softly: "Why did the lord say this? Our sincere heart can shine on the sun and the moon. The Han Dynasty needs people like the lord to lead the people, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment. ”

"This Wang Xingbing, one is to be able to lead a heroic talent to protect himself in this troubled era. The second is to restore stability to the Han Dynasty and save the people from dire straits. There was never the slightest bit of ambition. Don't say anything more. Liu Yu's face was holy, and his eyes were so clear.

People who don't know Liu Yu well or are relatively simple have been moved by him, such as Zhao Yun, Guan Yu and others, they were so moved by Liu Yu that they don't even want the supreme position, where to find this kind of person in the world.

Chen Gong, Yang Biao and others were very disdainful, if Liu Yu really didn't have any ambitions, why didn't he hand over the power and army to Liu Xie in Xuchang. Everyone is a smart person and won't really believe Liu Yu's words.

Yang Biao said again: "The rise and fall of the world lies in the hands of the prince. If the prince refuses, won't he disregard the survival of the people in the world? ”

Liu Yu slapped the table and scolded: "Bastard, if you say more, you will not be spared!" Meeting! ”

Liu Yu got up angrily and left here, leaving only a group of subordinates.

Everyone was a little at a loss, and hurriedly looked at Chen Gong and Yang Biao and other resourceful people.

Chen Gong and Fu Zhu glanced at each other, knowing in their hearts, and then stood up and said goodbye to the others.

Yang Biao, the old fox, is very elf, and Chen Gong and Fu Zhu have entrusted him with this important task.

The generals all followed Chen Gong and them away, and even Ma Teng and Zhang Lu bowed slightly to Yang Biao and left.

"Lord Yang, the prince's attitude is so resolute, what should I do?"

"Yes, for the sake of the world, Lord Yang, you have to stand up."

The people on Yang Biao's side quickly surrounded Yang Biao.

Surrounded by everyone, Yang Biao said confidently: "Don't be anxious. Looking at it from below, the prince's move must have a deep meaning. ”

Seeing that Yang Biao was so confident, these people calmed down, and someone asked out loud, "Then what does the prince mean?" What should I do? ”

Yang Biao said leisurely: "Since ancient times, every time the Holy King succeeds to the throne, there will be auspicious appearances. ”

Everyone present understands, don't they just create some miracles, rui beasts and the like to set off Liu Yu's nobility! If you don't understand them, you don't have to mix in this world.

Everyone smiled, they knew what else to do.

So within a few days, a large number of auspicious things appeared in Liu Yu's territory.

For example, there are people in the mountains and fields in Youzhou who saw a white deer falling from the sky, and spat out people's words, claiming that the Holy Emperor was about to ascend the throne, and then stepped on the auspicious clouds in the shock of the people in the mountains and fields.

In Yanmen County, Bingzhou, a dragon flew out of the river, hovered in Liu Yu's previous residence for a while, and then left, and there were many witnesses.

On the side of the Yellow River in Jizhou, there is a dragon turtle mouth hanging white jade breaking out of the water, throwing down the white jade to the sky and swimming into the river after a long roar, and disappearing.

Even in the land of Xiliang, there is a white tiger of the Rui beast.

When the news spread, the princes of the world were shaken, what did Liu Yu really do? Do you want to be the emperor!?

The princes hurriedly sent elite spies to find out about any movement of Liu Yu.

All kinds of auspicious things appeared, and the ministers gathered in front of Liu Yu's palace again and knelt down in front of the palace to ask Liu Yu, the king of Zhao, to ascend the throne and become emperor.

Liu Yu went out and scolded the ministers for not knowing what to do, but they forced him so much.

"Lord Wang, now all kinds of auspicious rui show that Lord Wang is the true son of heaven!" Yang Biaoqiu said bitterly.

Lord Wang, you're still here. I've worked hard enough for these people.

Liu Yu sighed and said, "How can this king be ranked in the ninth five? ”

"Lord Wang, you are virtuous and deserve to be called the emperor." Many people who were waiting for Liu Yu to become an official and a knight after he took the throne cried.

Liu Yu looked at the surging emotions, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "You want to be lonely in injustice!" Let's all go back, don't say anything about it. ”

After Liu Yu finished speaking, he walked back and closed the door.

Yang Biao and the others have been kneeling there.

The people were all pointing fingers, and they didn't know what these dignitaries were doing kneeling in front of the palace.

After a long time, Yang Biao got up and left here, the others looked at each other, and their heads were gone, do they still want to kneel here? So they all got up and left.

Yang Biao was not disheartened, he was going to find reinforcements. The place he went to was the residence of Chen Gong, who first followed Liu Yu.

And Chen Gong's mansion is already full of Liu Yu's henchmen and advisers, Li Gui, Fu Zhu, Chen Gong, Guo Tu, and Feng Ji.

Several of them were drinking tea and tasting fruits, all of them looking like people outside the world.

"Yang Biao's gang is usually inconspicuous and leaky, but I didn't expect to have such ability, the whole Han has their people!" Guo Tu said after taking a bite of the fruit.

This time, all kinds of auspicious rui were not ordered by Liu Yu to do, all of them were helped by the protégés of Yang Biao and others. Yang Biao and others completely exposed their hidden strength this time.

Li Gui, who was in charge of the "dark department", had a cold face and said: "These people are really willing to spend money for glory and wealth!" In the next is just to take this opportunity to clean up for the lord, so as not to have any troubles in the future. ”

The others laughed and said nothing, and Li Gui dealt with Yang Biao and the others, which was very beneficial to them. But they can't express any opinions, so as not to be remembered by Li Gui.

"Yang Biao is helpless to do this, after all, they only have official positions and no actual rights, and if they want to occupy a high position in the future, now is the best time for them." Feng Ji said with a smile.

Chen Gong took over the topic and said, "I haven't even figured out the mind of the lord, how can I succeed?" There are only a few auspicious rui, and the lord naturally knows that it is fake. ”

Chen Gong knew very well what Liu Yu wanted, so he disdained the actions of Yang Biao and the others for ten minutes.

Frustrated, who had been silent, suddenly said: "Gongtai, it is estimated that Yang Biao may come to you soon." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Chen Gong was a little interested.

"Do you want to make a bet? The two bottles of puree Luo Bingquan that you treasure have been thinking about for a long time. If you win, how about sharing it with everyone? Instead of answering Chen Gong's question, he made a bet with Chen Gong.

"Gongtai, you're not kind. This puree Luo Bingquan is sold in limited quantities in Luoyang Building, and there are only two bottles per day. I didn't expect you to have two bottles here! Li Gui scolded with a smile.

The others looked at Chen Gong, looking at your kid who hid deep enough.

Chen Gong was very embarrassed, he wanted to keep these two bottles of wine for the future, and he didn't know how he knew.

"Well, if Gong and you win, those two bottles of wine will be taken out for you to taste!" Chen Gong said generously, he didn't believe that Fu Zhi could guess correctly.

Frustrated, he said with a treacherous scheming: "Gongtai, you miscalculated. After Yang Biao fails, he will not let his previous efforts be in vain, he will definitely find reinforcements. And the best candidate, isn't it Chen Gongtai, the earliest military division who followed the lord? ”

Chen Gong secretly screamed that it was not good, and he had fallen for this trick. Before Chen Gong could cheat, Chen Gong's housekeeper came to inform Yang Biao to ask for a meeting.

Chen Gong looked confused, how could he come so quickly!

"Hurry up, please!" Guo Tuyue said in a hurry, he was ready to watch a good show.

As soon as Yang Biao came here, he saw so many people there, and his old face was a little shy for a while.

"Mr. Yang, please take a seat. I don't know what Mr. Yang is doing here today? Chen Gong quickly straightened his posture and was full of spring breeze.

Yang Biao didn't care about his face, and said straight to the point: "The old man is here today for the prince's accession to the throne. I have been working hard for a long time, but the prince is resolute. I also ask all the military advisors to think of a way for us for the sake of the common people in the world. ”

Chen Gong glanced at him, this guy is still powerful. Then he looked at Yang Biao and said with a sad face: "The lord has a tough attitude, even if he is below, he can't say much about this in front of the lord." ”

Yang Biao was stunned, Chen Gong had no choice, so who else had a way? Yang Biao looked at the others, Guo Tu looked up at the roof, Feng Ji looked into the distance, and he didn't want to pay attention to Yang Biao at all.

Li Gui had a smile on his face, but this smile tasted chilly in Yang Biao's eyes, and he didn't dare to say much to Li Gui.

The last hope is to be depressed.

Yang Biao looked at the frustration pitifully and said, "Do you have a good plan for Gong and Mr. ”

"There's no good idea!" Frustrated Professor shook his head and said.

Yang Biao was depressed, and it seemed that he could only figure out his own way.

"However, if I have some opinions, I can let Boss Yang take a closer look." Frustrated professor said again.

"Mr. Gonghe, please speak!" Yang Biao has hope.

He said lightly: "Since the lord was young, he has always pretended to be the people in his heart. Every action is done with the interests of the people as the first starting point. I thought that if the people had petitioned spontaneously, the lord might have changed his mind. ”

Yang Biao was overjoyed. But he was also a little worried, and it was feasible to mobilize the people to petition, and his protégés and former officials also had this power. But those auspicious rui have been exposed a lot before, looking at Li Gui's expression, he knows that there is no good fruit to eat, if his strength is exposed again, then he Yang Biao or the Yang family will be liquidated by Liu Yu or Liu Yu's descendants. Few kings want to have such a large force under their control.

Looking at Yang Biao's sad face, Li Gui sneered: "Boss Yang is a protégé and a former official all over the world, and it is easy for the people to petition." ”

Yang Biao was taken aback, this sentence was heartbreaking, if Liu Yu heard it, his Yang family would be finished.

"Gentlemen, I'm afraid there is nothing I can do about it. The old man is dying and old, and he can't take on too much. I would also like to ask you to lend a hand. Yang Biao hurriedly expressed his attitude.

Yang Biao's attitude has been made clear, Chen Gong and the others secretly scolded the old fox, but they all understood what to do.

"This matter is about the lord, and we are naturally willing to help. Lord Yang just needs to do his best. Chen Gong made the final decision as a representative.

"Then the old man is waiting for your good news." Yang Biao said gratefully, and then left respectfully.

After this time, Yang Biao felt that he would be more low-key in the future.

"You lost the public platform, hurry up and get your things out! Don't cheat! ”

This sentence made Yang Biao fall and gnaw on the mud.

Yang Biao turned around angrily and saw it, you guys, this is a bet with the old man, right!

Chen Gong had to contribute two bottles of puree Luo Bingquan painfully, looking at his expression, as if he had died of his father.

So in the next few days, under the operation of Chen Gong and others, a news circulated among the people: Liu Yu, the king of Zhao, was ready to return the power to Liu Xie, the son of heaven in Xuchang.

It's not a big deal for the people. Although Liu Yu, the king of Zhao, is good to them, the transfer of power between the big people has nothing to do with ordinary people like them, and it is the same for anyone who is the emperor.

However, there is another piece of news that is more widely circulated, that is, the Son of Heaven of Xuchang is ready to come to receive it, and is ready to change the existing tax system and land distribution system, and restore the original state before Emperor Ling.

It's a huge wave. Emperor Ling has been dead for I don't know how many years, the previous taxes are simply outrageous and terrible, and most of the land in the hands of the people was distributed to them by King Zhao, and a very low tenant rent was set, if the original state was restored, then they would become nothing.

When it comes to their own vital interests, the people are not so calm. Then the people of the "dark department" and Yang Biao's protégés began to go deeper and deeper into the people, and proposed that instead of letting Liu Xie take over and take away the big guy's land, it would be better to let King Zhao ascend the throne as the emperor, so wouldn't the big guy's property and land be as usual.

As soon as the people heard this truth, King Zhao was definitely no worse than Liu Xie as emperor.

So the people went out of their homes one after another, and under the leadership of well-intentioned people, they went to the government to petition the local lords, and they desperately hoped that Liu Yu, the king of Zhao, would ascend the throne and lead them to a happy and happy life.

The local officials all received the instructions from above, and admitted this kind of thing, that is, their petition was accepted by the local officials, and said that it would be conveyed to the prince.

The local people are like this, and the people of Luoyang even came directly to Liu Yu's palace to petition.

They took the eldest and most respected three elders in Luoyang City as the forerunner, and knelt in front of the gate of the palace with the book of all people in their hands.

Liu Yu discussed things with several confidants of the civil and military generals, and was shocked by such a thing.

Liu Yu hurriedly went over to inspect, Chen Gong and the others smiled slightly, and today's matter is settled.

Liu Yu opened the door and was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him, a street full of people inside and out. Kneeling in front of the gate were three gray-haired old men, dressed in blue, red, and blue Hanfu.

"Three elders, please get up. When you kneel here, the king's heart is not at peace. Liu Yu hurriedly went over and helped them up.

The old man in red held the Book of All People in his hand and said respectfully: "Lord Wang, the three of us are entrusted by the people of Luoyang to deliver the Book of All People to the Lord of the People, hoping that the Lord can respond to the people and succeed to the Ninth Five-Year Plan." ”

"Don't be like that for the elders. How can this king be ranked in the ninety-five. Liu Yu excused himself again.

"Lord, since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the lives of the people in the world have been devastated, fortunately blessed by the sky, the prince has been sent down to calm the world, and the people have regained their joy, this is the will of God." The old man in the green robe said.

Liu Yu shook his head and said, "The position of the Son of Heaven belongs to my brother. ”

"The prince's words are reasonable. Since ancient times, the successor to the throne has been none other than a virtuous person. Wang Ye is famous for his benevolence and virtue all over the world, can Liu Xie be compared with Wang Ye? Besides, Liu Xie is just Dong Zhuo's support for ascending the throne, and he is not a long or a descendant, and his name is not right. The prince rescued Liu Xie from Dong Zhuo's dog thief back then, but he abandoned the prince and me and other people and ran to Xuchang. How can our people recognize him? The blue-robed old man said righteously.

His paragraph resonated with everyone present, and they shouted: "I don't want Liu Xie to be the emperor." ”

The subordinates behind Liu Yu also knelt down and said, "Please enthrone the lord and become the emperor!" ”

"Please enthrone the prince and become the emperor!" The people, the officials, the generals, the soldiers, men, women, and children all knelt down.

Only Liu Yu was standing.

Liu Yu looked around and thought to himself that this was the result he had always wanted.

Seeing Liu Yu's thoughtful appearance, everyone thought that Liu Yu would refuse again, and hurriedly said: "If the prince doesn't agree, I can't afford to kneel for a long time." ”

Liu Yu closed his eyes and said, "The destiny is like this!" Brother Xie, as a brother, I can't help you. ”

When he opened his eyes again, Liu Yu said firmly: "Liu Yu is weak, fortunately blessed by the sky, the civil and military assistants and the people are so loved. Liu Yu promised you today to shoulder this heavy burden! ”

The audience cheered, and everyone celebrated, and Liu Yu finally agreed.

Dian Wei and Li Gui hugged each other and cried, they were the first people to follow you Liu Yu, and the excitement in their hearts was not something ordinary people could understand.

The two big men hugged each other, making Lu Bu and the other generals feel sick for a while, and quietly took a step away.

Dian Wei and Li Gui also reacted in the end, came over, found themselves holding a man, and hurriedly pushed away. Li Gui almost vomited, looking at the strange eyes of others, Li Gui felt that his reputation was over today.

There were many people present who saw this scene, and in the end, it was spread, and the passionate embrace of Li Gui and Dian Wei was falsely rumored by people with intentions. Even in later generations, some wild histories made up some stories especially for them. Saying that they are heroes who have to let go of their male love for the sake of Liu Yu's foundation is singing and crying.

Well, back to business.

There were many people in tears at the scene. Especially Yang Biao and others, it is not easy to feel how much. Fortunately, the previous efforts were not in vain, Liu Yu is finally going to ascend the throne and become emperor, and their investment is right.

Chen Gong, Fu Zhu and the others looked at Liu Yu with a look of relief, and the lord they followed finally stepped into the highest position of power.

Liu Yu turned around and winked at Chen Gong and the others, the meaning was obvious: well done.

Chen Gong and the others understood and bowed respectfully.

So this persuasion drama finally got a perfect ending.
